I use the following to get the value after the 5th underscore which is 4 BSC403_JAIN03|3410_PantaiAceh_PCEHM1_4_97| BSC_ID=`echo $DATA | cut -f5 -d"_"` How do I read the same row but from backwards? I want the first value after the last underscore which is again 4. The reason is some of the record formats are not consistent. Nimi
